Missile Command 4-4-82
This is one of the strangest 5200 prototypes I've ever seen. It
appears to be the final version of Missile Command, but notice how the
EPROMs are labeled PAL? This appears to be a PAL version of Missile
Command which was developed for the PAL 5200 which was never released.
Since this version has extra instrucitons to handle the extra scanlines
and cycles from the PAL format it actually plays slightly slower. Also
notice how the screen is slightly compressed, which is a complete mystery
since PAL has more scanlines not less. This is probably a result
of the way in which the emulator handles the PAL code.

Although you can't tell from the screenshot,
the game runs about 4 seconds slower
